Expedition plan by Lewis and Clark to explore Maria's River route
On July 1 1806 Lewis and Clark outline a split expedition. A small party travels to the falls of the Missouri while volunteers explore Maria's River northward to locate a possible branch to Lard 50. Separate groups guard canoes and transport gear toward the Missouri and Yellowstone, with orders to contact Sioux chiefs and link up with the main party at the Missouri. The men and allied Indians also use a bath that evening.

New generation scanners reveal more Akhmim mummies secrets
Two Milwaukee Public Museum mummies, Djed-Hor and Padi-Heru, spaced centuries apart, underwent CT scans at GE Healthcare in Wisconsin. The Akhmim Mummy Studies Consortium aims to build 3-D images and facial reconstructions, expanding knowledge of ancient Egyptian life and death. Researchers, including Carter Lupton, expect clearer images and better interpretation of debris and bone within the mummies. The effort spans US and Cairo sites with archives in Harrisburg and collaboration with the University of Manitoba for skull reconstruction. The 1986 scan methods were surpassed by the latest technology, delivering more images in less time and enabling detailed cross sections and 3-D modeling.
